Dear Alex:

I agree. I think that with consumer electronics, one size is not suitable for all.

I know Astak really wants the 9 inch with SIPix screen. The SIPix screen is on hold while they fix a small glitch... and then full production will start. I cannot wait to hear it is coming!!

You are right! I hear so much "pure dribble" about how the iPad will do away with all dedicated eBook Readers. I bristle everytime some idiot makes this statement. I can see where heavy devices such as the iPad have their place... but I cannot remotely envision people on a plane or at the beach or in bed preferring something so heavy for simple but pleasurable reading. I see different sizes of dedicated eBook Readers taking off; and Astak will have at least one and possibly several different 9 inch!
